Raw is a good place for an artist. It's where the truth comes out.

Getting on the bus and touring was my life. And when that was not around, I felt myself a bit lost at times, because that was all I had.

I'm grateful when anybody can start to have his or her limited perception of the genre open up a little bit. There's a lot of great music in the country genre that doesn't get heard because people say, 'Well, I don't like country.'

I don't swear much; I've taken those words out of my vocabulary, and having kids, you have to have two sets of language!
